if you're giving up on o-rebs and size you may as well just toss as many iso bros around westbrook as possible with patpat at the 5

roberson is dead weight in the playoffs and prob cant fix his shot within a year or two. the guy is the equivalent of a rotting log on this roster. find a wing to replace him. i proposed gay because the contracts sorta line up and SA would certainly gamble on him.

Gay has looked quite good in San Antonio imo. His numbers have been ok but when I see him out there he looks like a born Spur. I don't think they'd trade Roberson for him given the length on his contract--by the time he develops the type of shot (if) that the Spurs want he'd be ready for his next payday.

He would still be a very positive player if he could do 1 or 2 things except shooting

20-25.

His game is really unique and fun to watch, he does so many things so well that others don't even try. Sure he has flaws, but his work ethic might be the best in the nba.
He doesn't give good interviews, but you have to admire a hard worker with a unique style of play that you don't see anywhere else in the league.

I saw an action where Wiggins drived passed the ball to an open man and then took the offensive board. This is encouraging.

I still think in 20 games he'll be back to terrible advanced stats.

Wade has a 1.6 per on 32% ts% so far but has played 71 minutes. Calderon is at -.5. Rose has been very solid so far, shockingly.

Kyrie has been ****ty compared to his normal elite self, 15 per and 47% ts%. But hard to really take much from 3 games except wades is waidsssssss. Free jr.

Looking at on/off numbers from a 100 minute sample is even more ******ed than derping over triple doubles.

Raptors are probably the most stacked team in the league.

This is there part of the season where confirmation bias runs rampant.

Lue said Wade came to him and asked to come off the bench. Watch them take off now with Hose and Smiff as their guards.

Who'd have thunk that guys who have no responsibility but to chill in the short corner and defend would look good early on?

I know it means next to nothing at this point, I didn't post it as such. Still it is something to look at.
Are you saying no one should post anything about the NBA until January because of lol sample size?

@LFC I had to buy a VPN subscription years ago to get around it, not sure if that is the best option now.

Looks like Bledsoe is on the move, sent home by the GM and woj is reporting a deal may come soon. I'm worried that TC is going to ship off Murray to grab him.
